This is a must-buy for students who are preparing through self-study. You should signup for this course to keep your preparation in check.

Beginning with Polity on 3rd December 2023, we will go on to test you on geography, economy, modern history, art & culture, Current affairs, science and technology and environment every subsequent week. After the first round of tests, there will be a round two of the same subjects however with more syllabus. This scientific approach helps you to revise, recall and retain information. Once the section wise tests are over, subject wise full length tests will help you to consolidate your knowledge about a topic. Finally, full length GS tests along with CSAT will allow you to strategise how to attempt the main examination. With the last test on 15 May 2024, we will leave you with enough time to revise the entire material before the Preliminary Exmination on 28 May 2023.
